Massage Therapy
Through St. Rita's Complementary Medicine Program

St. Rita's offers a variety of massage therapy services to the public in order to promote their physical, spiritual, and mental wellness. These services include 15-minute chair, 30 or 60-minute table, and stone massage for individuals, as well as corporate services.

Chair and table massages combine traditional hands-on techniques, such as Swedish and myofascial, with special music and aromatherapy to enhance your experience.

Stone massage uses heated stones to intensify the benefits of a regular massage. Moist, smooth stones are placed and massaged on key parts of the body to melt away soreness and increase relaxation. These unique massages last approximately one hour and also incorporate music and aromatherapy.

Corporate services are available for your convenience. We can arrange a time to provide onsite chair massages as a single "staff appreciation" event or on a regular basis. Call for more details.

Benefits of massage include:

Benefits of Massage
  • Reduced Stress and Anxiety
  • Improved Circulation
  • Increased Flexibility
  • Strengthened Immune System
  • Improved Posture
  • Increased Energy and Alertness
While many "healthy" people consider massage to be a key part of their wellness routine, those with conditions such as headaches, neck or back pain, fibromyalgia, or carpal tunnel syndrome may also find these treatments helpful. Physician referrals are usually not required but are always welcome.

Most services are provided on a "fee at the time of service" basis and payable by cash or check. Individual massage therapy rates are:

Fee at the Time of Service
  • $16 for 15-Minutes (Chair)
  • $35 for 30-Minutes (Table)
  • $48 for 60-Minutes (Table)
  • $65 for Stone Massages
